Becoming Best

The hunt is on for a young footballer to play Manchester United legend George Best, in a new film about his life.

Last year 15-year-old junior golfer José Luis Gutiérrez - one of Spain's rising stars in the sport - got the chance to be his idol... Seve Ballesteros.

Jose played Seve in the film of the same name - to much critical acclaim. The movie was produced by Stephen Evans, and now Evans is on the lookout for another rising sports star, for his new cinematic adventure.

Caroline Barker has been speaking to Stephen Evans about his search...
